This song about the controversial Anthroposophical understanding of Lucifer as a force of transcendence and liberation that risks overshooting into mania and delusion. It's a cautionary tale about the seductive quality of Lucifer and transcendence in general, in that this force is necessary to rise beyond pedestrian materialism but it can lead to ungrounded or false spirituality if one isn't careful. The golden mean between material enslavement and metaphysical delusion is the Christ impulse, which balances and goes beyond, matching awakened wisdom with compassion.

The Pride of Lucifer
Track from as yet unreleased album
Neptunian Horizon / Montalk
Crashing to ground, lucid light of the heavens,
Fire divine unto darkness and venom.
Captive in clay, dream the ancient of days,
Eyes burning skyward all vision but fades away.
For there once was an angel with eyes brighter than the sun.
Bringer of light, minnesinger primaeval.
Deep in your soul, can you hear the song of Lucifer?
“Break through the waves, rise to infinity!”
Crown of creation, foundation of the universe.
Baptized in light, let the wisdom flow through your veins.
You are Neptunian, the progeny of fissure kings.
Break through the waves, rise to infinity!
Flashes so bright, gnostic visions transcendent,
All laws revealed in a cosmos resplendent.
Scraping the ceiling of unhuman feelings,
Pride burning skyward, submission but fades away.
For the Grail lies within you beneath the waters of your mind,
Churning the waves, turning the maelstrom.
Rise, O Neptunian, from vile pandemonium,
Break through the waves, rise to infinity!
The pride of Lucifer!
Freedom unbound, astral dreamers astray,
Burned by the sun, dark infernal dominion.
Bringer of gnosis or untold psychosis?
Falling from heaven the loveless behold their doom!
The pride of Lucifer!
Oh, fallen the angel with eyes brighter than the sun,
Bringer of light, serpent-singer prime evil.
Deep in your soul, can you hear the song of Lucifer?
“Break through the waves, rise to infinity!”
Fire divine unto darkness and venom.
Captive in clay, dream the ancient of days,
Eyes burning skyward all vision but fades away.
For there once was an angel with eyes brighter than the sun.
Bringer of light, minnesinger primaeval.
Deep in your soul, can you hear the song of Lucifer?
“Break through the waves, rise to infinity!”
Crown of creation, foundation of the universe.
Baptized in light, let the wisdom flow through your veins.
You are Neptunian, the progeny of fissure kings.
Break through the waves, rise to infinity!
Flashes so bright, gnostic visions transcendent,
All laws revealed in a cosmos resplendent.
Scraping the ceiling of unhuman feelings,
Pride burning skyward, submission but fades away.
For the Grail lies within you beneath the waters of your mind,
Churning the waves, turning the maelstrom.
Rise, O Neptunian, from vile pandemonium,
Break through the waves, rise to infinity!
The pride of Lucifer!
Freedom unbound, astral dreamers astray,
Burned by the sun, dark infernal dominion.
Bringer of gnosis or untold psychosis?
Falling from heaven the loveless behold their doom!
The pride of Lucifer!
Oh, fallen the angel with eyes brighter than the sun,
Bringer of light, serpent-singer prime evil.
Deep in your soul, can you hear the song of Lucifer?
“Break through the waves, rise to infinity!”
